Notes and Restrictions on Accessing ISP
Observe the following notes and restrictions when connecting the machine to ISP:
z
Dial-up connection is not supported. Continuous connection is required.
z
Connect the machine in an environment using IP masquerade. Assigning a global IP
address to the machine is not supported.
z
Be sure to assign an exclusive e-mail account to the machine for POP reception.
Sharing an e-mail account with other users may cause troubles.
z
Be sure to set size limitation for sending e-mail. Although the applicable e-mail size
may vary depending on the ISP used, we recommend that you set a small value.
z
Although continuous connection other than ADSL or cable connection is also
supported, the reception of image data significantly burdens the machine.
z
SMTP reception is not supported. This machine supports only POP reception.
z
When installing the machine in an environment that is operating a mail transfer agent
(MTA) in a private segment, set the machine to adapt to the operation system being
used.
z
For information about supported ISPs, contact our Customer Support Center.
z
When received via POP, the fax cannot be sent using the Fax Gateway feature. This
is because POP receiving does not forward an Internet fax document received by e-
mail to the fax machine.
